Product Description
Details
This Stainless Steel kettle & steel fire-base boils 1.6ltrs (approximately 6 cups) of water at a time. This size is ideal for Anglers, Car Camping, Scouts, Picnics, Hunters, Garden Allotments, Caravaning Camping gear, Wilderness Survival kits, Humanitarian Aid, or anyone who works or plays in the outdoor.
A popular Green Whistle has replaced the Orange stopper on this Kettle and will let you know when the water has boiled.
Strong with nothing to fail or break, our kettles work extremely well in both good and harsh weather conditions. They are a vital piece of camping equipment for any outdoor person. Using whatever natural fuel is lying around (twigs, dry grass, heather, Birch bark, Pine cones, dry animal dung, etc) our kettles will bring water to the boil within a matter of minutes. Never carry fuel again.
Our kettles are cost-FREE to run, eco-friendly as they operate on carbon neutral fuels, and are great fun to use. Note: Add our Pot-Support & Cook set to prepare small amounts of food (Noodles, Rice, Oatmeal, hydrate food, etc) over the kettle while your water boils. Boil and cook at the same time using only a handful of fuel!
Better still, add our Hobo Stove accessory to turn the fire base of your kettle into a stand-alone wood fuelled Camping Stove.
See our Accessories Category for these products.
Fire Base & Drawstring carrying bag are included as Standard with each Kelly Kettle. The durable steel fire base inverts up into the bottom of our kettles to make the unit as compact as possible for transport and storage.
Please note: The Kettle has been designed to boil water extremely fast in all weather conditions using very little fuel. When filled with water, the Kelly Kettle should always be carried upright to avoid any spillage/leakage from the water spout or chimney top.
Older Kettles may have an Orange Rubber or Cork Stopper. These MUST ALWAYS be removed before using the kettle. The Kettle must never be boiled with these older stoppers in the spout.

Naprawdę gotuje 1,6 l wody w 5 minut. (Posted on 08/08/2022)Rate this product? - Brilliant system

Had the basecamp model for years now. I've not found anything that uses biomass type fuels that boils water as quick as a kelly kettle. Recently bought the hobo stove addition and it's great. Does what it's meant to with little to go wrong. Study build quality as well. If the grid goes down or if you are out with the family the basecamp model is a great fall back. Wanting to get the trekker model for when walking. Totally recommended. (Posted on 22/07/2022)Rate this product? - Used every Tuesday on Volunteer work ;-)

Hi Patrick and Seamus. I use my 1.6 litre Kelly Kettle every Tuesday when doing volunteer work for the Cotswold Wildlife Trust. We maintain several lakes in the Cotswolds (U.K.) by keeping the footpaths clear and pollarding the willow around the lake edges. It is heavy work and a fresh hot cuppa is most welcome during the sessions. There are usually ten of us working each week.

A must buy for anyone who spends time outdoors,ether camping/walking or working. I've had 2 of them for years both aluminium and have done me proud but sadly the basecamp kettle has had its day, so I've bought a stainless steel to replaceRate this product?

Hello. We received the product on January 30th. The product is really nice. Your service is truly tremendous. Your products are hardly known here. I wish you could sell here. But it still comes from Ireland to our home. I would recommend it to anyone here. Thanks for everything.Rate this product?

Took a chance on Kelly Kettle start of December.Rate this product?
When I received it and took it on the shooting Range with me.
Many people really impressed with it and the short time taken to boil.
the exclamations of WOW was many times.
I now have several ask me for details and where to buy from.
You should have had at least five to seven orders since then from Malta.
Good for camping - scouts and hunters and many other sport applications (Posted on 31/01/2018) - Fantastic product and Service.

Looks great, price is very reasonable and includes delivery. Delivery time was fantastic 2 days from order and to the UK. I can't wait to get a chance to use it in anger. (Posted on 29/07/2017)Rate this product? - Great E-Mail support

Day trips, week trips, backpacking, 4x4ing, anything back country.
Fast, and simple. Boil water fast, cool it down fast for your canteen, or washing. Great combination with the Hobo stove and pot support. Easy, fast cleanup and storage.
Heat your water, while prepping your freeze dried food. So simple, so efficient.
The envy of my friends. (Posted on 05/05/2016) - Excellent!

Used my new Kettle for the first time at the weekend ; -1 degrees (not as cold as some, but pretty windy). Collected some dead wood while wandering about within 10 feet of my hammock. Boiled water - no problem - absolutely roaring. Excellent! (Posted on 11/03/2016)Rate this product? - Despite the size, the kettle is a better pack item.

We often take others on our little outings and they are always impressed with what can be done with the (Kelly) Kettle. The biggest selling feature is the low environmental impact it has. We usually gather lichen, birch bark, horseshoe fungus and twigs along the path and very little is left after cooking the meal - most of which can be safely extinguished with the water in the kettle. Great product!Rate this product?
For years we took little camp stoves with us and occasionally either lost knuckle hair lighting them or soaked the odd pack with the fluid. Despite the size, the kettle is a better pack item.

I've been using my base camp kettle in the Malaysian jungles and camping on tropical islands for about 5 years. Not much chance of bringing in or sourcing commercial fuels easily plus all the weight involved considering that we need to boil up from various water sources 6-8 litres each per day as well as the inconvenience and time in building fires and keeping them going.Rate this product?
Getting the kettle really changed the dynamics of logistics! Conversely, the shape and build of the kettle also allows the boiled water to cool down quickly to fill up canteens, especially since it can be easily immersed in a water source. With the new accessories, it keeps getting better (I had to hold the pan over the chimney before the pot support came out) and the hobo stove completes it.
Plus factor - kids get to use the left over embers in the base to polish off a break with toasted marshmallows, which don't burn, as a bribe! (Posted on 07/09/2015) - I'm delighted with a fabulous piece of kit!

I've just received my SS Base Camp Kettle and Hobo Stove, less than three days after ordering, and I'm delighted with a fabulous piece of kit! I'll be trying it out at the first opportunity!Rate this product?
I'm also impressed with your customer service - an enquiry about my order was answered very quickly, and your carrier, DPD, were extremely efficient as always!
Keep up the good work! (Posted on 09/06/2015) - Thoroughly impressed!

I was thoroughly impressed by the fact that I can boil a full kettle with two pages of newspaper or four envelopes. Unfortunately, I don't get to go camping much, since my lovely wife doesn't care for it, but that is something that has impressed me. Every once in a while I get a 'wild hair' and decide I need to try using the kettle again. I have one of your stainless steel kettles, and that thing is fantastic. On the positive, we've been Blessed with a little boy, and I suspect camping will once again be an option as he gets older.Rate this product?

The Kelly Kettle Basecamp in the Stainless Steel Version is very nice. It is very easy to handle and has a very good Quality. I used the Base Camp on Fishing Trips and Outdoor Trips. You can nearly everywhere use the BaseCamp and the process to boil water is very fast. In comparison with a Gas Cooker the Kettle BaseCamp were much faster. Thumbs Up for the Kelly Kettle BaseCamp.

We have the Stainless Steel Base Camp Kelly Kettle, it's been in constant use for the last four years, the sheer pleasure in any kind of weather in using this bit of kit is priceless.Rate this product?

Well done Kelly Kettle on a brilliant bit of kit (Posted on 01/09/2014) - must-have gear!

I have had a kelly kettle for about 6 years now, ever since i saw one advertisement I was hooked.Rate this product?
Over 6 years this kettle has been on 5, 10 day remote canoe trips,... and a couple dozen long weekend canoe trips. It's great for group trips where everyone wants coffee in the morning quickly,.. we just keep the kettle going for a good half an hour and everyone can get their 2-3 cups of coffee in without waiting a ridiculous amount of time for water to boil, this also avoids using up precious and heavy gas cartridges. I usually don't take this kettle backpacking, but i always miss it!
Customer service is top notch if you have a problem with any components or replacement parts.
Love my Kelly Kettle!

I purchased my kettle to keep in my truck while out on the trapline. THIS THING IS AWESOME!!! Nothing better than a nice hot lunch and hot coffee while out in the cold. Hot coffee within 15 minutes. This is one piece of equipment I will never be without! (Posted on 26/07/2014)Rate this product?
